How to Access Your Personal Information

If you have provided personal or other voluntarily provided information, you may access, review and make changes to it by contacting us. To manage your receipt of marketing and non-transactional communications, you may unsubscribe by clicking the “unsubscribe” link located on the bottom of any related email from the BCRD. Emails related to the purchase or delivery of programs or services are provided automatically – you are not able to opt-out of transactional emails. We will try to accommodate any requests related to the management of personal information in a timely manner. However, it is not always possible to completely remove or modify information in our databases (for example, if we have a legal obligation to keep it for certain timeframes).

Under certain circumstances we may be obligated or compelled to disclose the information: when required by law, court order or government agency, or when disclosing such information is reasonably required to protect the BCRD, its property, the Site, the safety of visitors or others, or to enforce our Terms of Use.

Use Caution When Sharing Information Online

When you voluntarily make your personal information available online – including in classes, via email, on social media, or via telephone calls or conferences – that information can be viewed, saved, collected, heard, and/or used by others outside of the BCRD. We are not responsible for any unauthorized third-party use of information provided in these contexts. Please be mindful whenever you share any information online.

Security of Your Information

The security of your personal information is important to us. Please remember, however, that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we attempt to take what we believe to be reasonable steps to protect your data and information from loss, misuse, unauthorized use, access or inadvertent disclosure, unfortunately no network, server, database, data or email transmission over the Internet is ever fully secure or error free. As a result, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information transmitted to us or posted on the Site, so you do so at your own risk and should take care in deciding what information you elect to send electronically or post.

Children

We are strongly committed to protecting the safety and privacy of children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 through the Site. If you are under 13, please do not give us any personal information or further access or use the Site. We encourage all parents to talk to their children about online safety and to monitor their children’s use of the Internet. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information to us, please contact us, and we will take reasonable efforts to identify and delete that information from our databases.

Your Rights

In addition to the rights described above, you may request your information be updated or deleted. If at any point you want us to update or delete the information we have about you, you can contact us. Depending on the laws where you live, we may not be legally required to comply with your request, so we will evaluate requests on a case-by-case basis.

If required by the laws where you live, you may have the right to block or suppress processing of your data and you may have the right to data portability.

Generally, no one is obligated to share either personal data or automatic or technical data. However, if you elect not to do so, we may be unable to provide programs or services, to grant access to our programs and other materials or sites, or to give you access to every feature and functionality of our Site, programs, services and social media or similar sites.
